Money to Burn
Posted by Bossip Staff
Kelly Rowland was spotted at the Sex and the City premiere recently all pretty in purple. Word is she’s been throwing around them stacks left and right in her new home town, London:
“Kelly Rowland ended a weekend of house hunting in Chelsea by blowing £116,000 on booze and food with friends Usher and Nelly at two London night clubs. First up, Rowland spent £6,000 on barbecued grub at Chelsea club Mamilanji before crossing town to ultra-glamorous Kensington club Amika. She arrived at the celebrity hotspot with Nelly and Usher and they got stuck into the vintage Dom Perignon champagne and some rather expensive food as well. The party went on to spend a whopping £110,000 on food and drink – way above the pricey night spot’s minimum spend rule of £1000 a table.”
And in case you didn’t know, £116,000 is equivalent to 225,629 American duckets. Sounds like that were really getting it in this weekend. You can best believe we’ll revisit this topic when she comes up bankrupt one day.

ahhhahaha…Bossip krazy
2nd…she iight
if the topic was Kim K. there would be 239 replys
Bossip that was funny… but don’t wish bad for her.
Oh I just hate those prom shoes she’s wearing. But the purple is very flattering!
Luv the dress.
i love kelly leave her alone and she made the rite move to come over here in chelsea coz its da best part of London and for ur information bossip she did really good with her single work over hear in London so she has the money to spend. kelly don’t listen to da haters.
I agree, the purple is very flattering on her.
po’ thang…
AHAHAHAAHH cool, who said kelly was broke???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
I love love love the dress! I don’t like the shoes but the color of the shoes complement the dress very well! She looks good and her skin is just beautiful! I don’t think she’s going to be hurting in the money dept. DC made lots and lots and lots of change so she should be set forever. However, unless she has some other money coming in somewhere that we don’t know about, she better spend wisely!
i hardly doubt kelly is broke..she may not be beyonce but she was part of one of the most successful POP groups in history…later for that theory and daddy knowles knows how to make people break bread, but she is looking real cute lately…good job we do not miss those red streaks.
i love her so much..:(.. i hope she makes it big in the uk… shes really talented…!!!
Dang Bossip get outta that girls pocket. She won’t ever be broke, at least not in the sense of what an average person views as broke. Every time you hear a DC song Kelly is getting paid, regardless if she never does anything again in life.
I work in High street Ken and Amika is down the road and is a smoking hot club! My mates were there and apparently Miss k, Nelly and co. were well freindly and had a fabulous time!!
Miss K, is always on the T.V here, and in the magazines! the UK loves her!! and BTW maybe Usher and Nelly picked up the tag- none of them are broke *****!
As always, she looks flawless. Bring Kelly!
omg vinandi where do u work coz i work in high street ken to and yes the UK loves her its a shame the US didn’t give her chance coz her album was really good.
wow. damn hot…She is so attractive. It’s said she has dated a very wealthy businessman on the celebrity and milliona ire dat ing site named ‘S earching M illionaire***c om’.wish her good luck.
just think…when she goes to events and gets paid in London, it’s more than what she would make here…….she ain’t hardly broke,
She looks great! Good look Kelly.
that is such a gorgeous dress..her skin looks flawless!
Bossip y’all are wrong for You can best believe we’ll revisit this topic when she comes up bankrupt one day.
@ Ré…what’s good, how are you?
Bossip just STAYS hating on Kelly. WTF!?!? And if I was a betting man I’d say that Bossip will go defunct before we read any bankruptcy story on Kelly. FUGG Bossip! Keep doing you Kelly!
Me doubts this chick will ever be broke. And it was the GROUP of them that spent the money, not Kelly by herself.
She looks pretty. Glad she’s having fun in the U.K.
cute
It’ funny how the (so-called) plain and boring one is turning into the beautiful swan. Kelly was always my favorite.
She is rockin’ that purple dress! She looks great and I am happy to hear that she is happy and enjoying herself in London.
Gone Kelly! Her confidence is beaming in these photos. I guess she say the hell with you folks talking reckless about her. She’s happy in her skin these days.
To BISSOP: Either you have gotten your international currency exchange rate, terribly wrong. Or someone is feeding you all false information. $225,629, is over a quarter of a million dollars, American currency. And I *****ure you Miss Kelly, or no one in her party, spent this amount. It is virtually impossible to spend that kind of money partying. Even in London. Believe me I have tried hard, and the nearest I have ever gotten was $57,000 large, for a night of partying. Unless you rent out a 250 foot yacht for the week, you will not spend a quarter of million just partying. Or unless, you were just to out right make the owner an offer, to become a partner of the club. BISSOP….. Fact check, just a little (MORE BETTER.) ARTOFWAR.
She looks stunningly beautiful I love her hair & her skin is the best in the biz!!!
@ SW10
Hey Chick! I actually work in Marketing at the Royal Albert to be exact- just down the road! You???
I love the Aldo in Hight Street Ken-I weep every time i p***** by- the shoes are divine!!!!
But- so true- Miss kelly is well talented! a bit corney but I love her! Work it, was a big hit and I told ya ( with Eve) too! I guess in the USA- Bey was always going to be the star- whereas her in the UK people accept her!
kelly looks really nice in that dress
she playing beyonce very close LOL
not a fan
YES SHE DOES SHE LOOK RADIANT, CAREFREE AND ITS SHOWING,IM HAPPY FOR YOUR CONFIDENCE DONT LIKE YOU MUCH, BUT I LOVE THE WAY YOU ARE DOING YOU!MUCH LOVE SISTA AND CARRY ON THAT SHINE!
@ ARTOFWAR
I reckon Bossip got their info from the LDN papers- cause yesterdays editions of the Lite and the Paper said the same amount!
I guess London is doing Ms. Kelly well! The papparazzi even follow her over there…go gurl
To BOSSIP: My sincere apologies, for inaccurate representation of your call sign. But the content of my previous comment, remains intact. ARTOFWAR.
@ vinandi i used to work in Aldo but now work in body shop.
I don’t blame her for moving to the U.K. I’ve been thinking about it myself lately, she’s living my dream.
Oh by the way w*****up JSABP.
I am not shocked that she can afford to live like that because of her success in Destiny’s child and with Soft Sheen & Carson but er um… she might wanna take it easy with the spending… Bankruptsy is a motha…especially if you are rich. There really is no excuse.
Oh and she looks really nice. Her hair looks great and purple is definately her color.
Kelly was always my favorite too..and her skin is amazing
@Vinandi
Funny ’cause I was in Aldo here in the US yesterday..I didn’t see anything I liked though
@Vinandi…. Thanks for the heads up. But often times these news sources, will over hype things including the LDN. In order to make the story more news worthy. It just wouldn’t be a story if they stated, that some celebrity just spent $250, at some club now would it. Thanks for the info anyway. ARTOFWAR.
@ Daone
oh the one here has some Fierce heels!! its so depressing! I just wanna run in there and ” do some hoodrat stuff”!!!
@ Artofwar
no prob’s dude- but you are right they do hye stuff up to make it more exciting!! I do think the amount stated is ridiculously suspect- thats half a 1 bedroom house in Peckham ( taking into account the credit crunch!)
Vinandi(Check me out!)
@ Artofwar

but u hav 2 remember dat this is a celeb we r talkin about 2 us we could alot more with dat money but 2 them they could spend it in one night.
* do alot more
@ SW10
you really think they can drop that amount? its crazy!well am jealous thats for damn sure! maybe I need to try out for X Factor or go on Big brother, cause I am defo not being paid enough!!
I find it interesting that Kelly was hanging out with a married man(Usher)and a man in a seroius relationship(Nelly). I’m sure Tameka and Ashanti were not feeling that. I bet you will never see Kelly and Jay-Z hanging out like that without Bey.
@Sw10
Gnite chick- leaving work now, going to try to avoid the mad rush hour on the Underground! see you on Bossip 2mo!!
she looks pretty !!! I like her with bangs..
SHE WENT OVER THERE SO SHE CAN BE THE BEYONCE OF THE UK. FACE IT AMERICA IS WAY MORE OBESSED WITH THE RICH AND FAMOUS THE OTHER COUNTRIES. WHY? BECAUSE EVEN THOUGH WE ARE IN A RECESSION, WE ARE STILL THE RICHEST COUNTRY UIN THE WORLD. GIVING PEOPLE MORE TIME TO FOCUS ON BS THEN REAL LIFE. SOBEYONCE BECOMES THE GODDESS OF EVERYBODYS MOUTH, TV,MAGAZINE AND WEBSITE. IN THE UK CELEBRITIES ARE ALSO FEWER, SO IF THEY HAVE ONE OVER THERE SHE WILL BECOME THE BLACK QUEEN OF ENGLAND AND GARNER ALL THE PRESS. IN A NUT SHELL BE THA ***** OVER THERE.

I must say, I’m surprised to not read of Tameka in the mix somewhere…….She (Kelly) was w/ two guys who probably enjoyed her company enough to foot the bill.
I’m just sayin.
Her skin is tooo gorgeous. I mean TOO gorgeous. Go ahead Kelly!
why the chics dig the weave so hard. like its such a turn off the next morning. lol
@ SW10.…. I understand your media sponsored opinion. (No beef implied). However, I manage celebrities here in Miami, some large, some mid level. And what the public should try to understand, is that what you hear, and what is actually the truth, do not, and often times match. Celebrities are a product. That product has to be put in the best light. This is all a part of marketing 101. As I previously stated, I have dropped over $57,000 in a one night excursion. And that was incurred on business, and may I add that amount was incurred on 15 people. So as you can see, I am not someone, that you would consider financially incapable. And I could have spent more. I am stating, that if we are just speaking about just one night of partying. It is virtually impossible to spent that kind of money. Again, I am not talking about buying houses, cars, planes, and gambling. I am talking about food, drinks and club hopping. It can’t be done. And if you and your party would attempt to do this, you would all need medical attention before the night is over. Unless you are partying with 100 people. It just can’t be done. Not to the tune of $225,629 American. Again, I am not talking about real-estate.
Here in South Beach Miami. A one bed room bungalow, will cost you in upwards of $600,000. I live in the Portofino Tower Condos, so money is not an issue. I am just simply stating, that $225,697 is hard to spend, for one night of partying, even if you have the means.
I don’t care if you are Bill Gates, which Kelly Roland is not. You would get a phone call from your accounting firm within the next two days. Where the C.P.A, in charge of you account, would be questioning your current mental state. And with good reason. ARTOFWAR
She looks lovely
Luv Her!
Kelly does get an A for effort. She’s really trying hard… not to fall into oblivion. Hopefully she’s at peace with the fact that she will never be this solo superstar that she so endeavors. In the UNITED states that is. Again big ups to her pushing forward in spite of the outcome. lol
Kelly looks good… That purple works well for her…
@ ARTOFWAR
I heard that in london, they published in the newspaper the bill of a guy who has spent a huge amount of $$$ in one night! If i remember it was more than 100,000 GBP!!! It was a trader or something, the kind that makes millions!!!So it is possible!
Bossip: Shut the hell up, you’re always trying to look down on Kelly. She’s doing very well in the UK. The people out there love her, not to mention the fact that she was part of a very popular girl group. STOP HATIN’
Yall stupid about products placement:
1)Chelsea club Mamilanji,
2)Kensington club Amika,
3)Dom Perignon champagne.
Publicity is my job.
How it works? First, club owner contact you, as celeb, and you get aid. Secund, wine vendors deal with club owner to place their products in the club, and you the celeb drinks it for free. Third, they deal with gossip papers to tell news on media. So you bossip readers read the news, and you know now that thoses clubs exist in london, Dom perignon is famous etc.
I never thought she could sing.
Looks like London has welcomed Kelly with open arms.Something she really couldn’t get here.People were too busy comparing her to Bey.And she just didn’t have a chance to let her true self shine.
I am happy for her and wish her much success.
Kelly’s skin looks beautiful.
WOW SHE LOOKS SOOOOOOO GOOD!!!
I WOULD LOVE TO HOOK-UP WITH HER AND GIVE HER SOME MORE REASONS TO SPEND THAT MONEY!!!
LET ME CATCH HER SLIPPIN’ & IT’S PAYDAY!!!!!!!
why did kelly even bring her purse out of the house, if she’s partying with nelly and usher??? and let’s think about this, if bey is worth an estimated 100 million with all of her endorsements, album sales, tours, and house ofdeadwrong..honestly kelly is probably worth what, maybe $10 million?????
go kelly your rich girl tina and matthews will be at your next concert collecting$$$ the money they gave you to hire usher and some nelly tina &matthew where whispering about how you will pay them back that yout thought it was a gift no kelly it was a capital loan you will be bey’s english muffin nanny of the house and on your off days you will clean up the “house of dead wrong”we love you kelly run kelly
I would recommend that you all take a look at the writers on the DC albums you will find her name on most of the songs as well. So everytime Beyonce gets paid she gets paid as well. This girl is going to be alright.
this is crazy…
ARTOFWAR -
Tell some of your clients – at least the black ones – to get some “black” consciousness and start spending that type of dough in places like Salvador and Rio, Brasil where you can get your samba on for a fraction of the price in Europe and the States and support your black peeps at the same time. It is a shame that Bono and other white artists have to help out Africa when so many of our celebs can afford to do so. Rather than rocking Versace and Gucci go over to Brasil and rock some Goya Lopes (Afro-Brasileira) designer. Afro-Brasilians are dying for some of us to drop a few American dollars on them and get some love and culture in return. That 250k could support 100 Brazilian college students.
Spend your dollars over there among the beautiful beaches and the drop dead gorgeous folks. Brothers can meet a beautiful Brazilian sista with none of the drama and golddigging mentality of some of the fake chickenheads here.
Kelly Looks Absolutely Beautiful in That Dress. I Can Tell It Wasn’t Designed By Tina Knowles. It Looks Too Cl*****y.
It will take Kelly and Beyonce two life times to spend all of the money that they’ve worked so hard for, and she looks very attractive everytime I see here.
I’m good at getting off topic but I have to say this. ***** BEYONCE! SHE’S A SELFISH B-I-ATCH! After all these women who were in the so called “group” did to make her famous, she just literally took the money and run! ***** HER! Every dog has it’s day but not not all dogs go to heaven!
She is cl*****y stunning and wonderful we love her and she is more then welcome to join the kingdom
Love you lady mwa mwa
Indeed BOSSIP.That kinda’ impulse spending will not go unpunished.It never does.
kelly is looking “HOT” you guys need to get a copy of ms.kelly, coz she is on fire…………..
she is gonna blow up really sooooooooooooon, check out her new video “comeback” on youtube
BOSSIP KELLY WONT BE GOING BROKE ANY TIME SOON THIS SITE WILL NO LONGER EXIST AND KELLY WILL STILL HAVE MONEY. THAT DESTINY CHILD PAPER AINT NO JOKE
@ ARTOFWAR U SOUND STACKALICOUS AND THATS THE TRUTH
I WISHJ KELLY WOULD LEARN HOW TO STAND UP ALL BY HERSELF ~ GET OUTTA B’S BACKSEAT IIICK ITS SICKNING~ MY QUESTION IS JUST WHY WOULD YOU BE SHELLING OUT YOUR MONEY WITH NOT 1 BUT 2 NI@@AS WHO ARE IN RELATIONSHIPS … USHERS MARRIED AND WHEN SHE SHOULDVE BEEN TRYIN TO HAVE NELLY SHE WANTED B TO GET HIM …. THAT IS UNTIL HE SMEELED HER GUURLS BREATH ~LMBAO~ AND WHEN SHE HAD THE FOOTBALL STA HE PROBABLY GOT TIRED OF HER ***** PLAYIN IN B’S SHADOW YET AGAIN~ SHES A MESS BUT NAAAA SHE DEFINATELY WILL NOT BE SEEING BROKE THATS NOT IN HER DESTINY CHIIIILD !
KELLY NEEDS TO TAKE OFF THAT HORRIBLE WIG AND GET ONE OF THEM BAD ***** HAIR CUTS LIKE SHE USED TO ROCK SO PEOPLE CAN SEE HER BEAUTIFUL BLACK FACE EVERYBODY DOESNT NEED A WEAVE /WIG TO LOOK PRETTY!AND I HOPE AND PRAY SHE DONT START CHOPPIN HERSELF UP LIKE LIL KIM AND ALL THE REST OF THEM THE CHIIIICHIIIIS ARE ENOUGH …. OOOO AND PLEASE DONT TURN LIGHT SKINNED TOO
Oh Kelly is finanlly starting to breakdown. Just wait, she will soon be announcing her intentions to seek new management and she should. No she isn’t very talented, has no identity or personality, and no, she is not as pretty as Beyonce’ (nothing to do with skin color, just features)but with different mangement she could be doing more. Blowing money on people who really don’t want to be *****ociated with you is not the way girl.
kelly looks good here,her hair and skin look beautiful.
She looks pretty! Her skin is nice as well.
